Slaves made up about 4% of the entire population of the United States. Right around 3/5 of the slaves were white, whom were called "endentured servants". The remaining 2/5 were Africans, whom were soled to the Europeans from Africa by there own fellow Africans. In all, about 1.6% of the entire population were black slaves.

What is the National bank act?

The National Bank Act (ch. 58, 12 Stat. 665, February 25, 1863) was a United States federal law that established a system of national charters for banks, the United States national banks. It encouraged development of a national currency based on bank holdings of U.S. Treasury securities, the so-called National Bank Notes. It also established the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) as part of the Department of the Treasury. This was to establish a national security holding body for the existence of the monetary policy of the state. The Act, together with Abraham Lincoln's issuance of "greenbacks," raised money for the federal government in the American Civil War by enticing banks to buy federal bonds and taxing state bank issued currency out of existence. The law proved defective and was replaced by the National Bank Act of 1864. The money was used to fund the Union army in the fight against the Confederacy. This authorized the OCC to examine and regulate nationally-chartered banks.


The promise by Germany in 1916 to stop sinking merchant ships without warning?

The international rules of war...and yes, there ARE rules of war!.. in 1916 were that submarines had to surface, ask a ship to stop, send over a crew in a small boat, examine the ships papers, and then decide if it was OK to sink the ship after the crew had been given a chance to abandon ship. As you can imagine, this didn't work too well, and Germany was losing WW1 because it was blockaded by the British Navy and couldn't do much about ships bringing supplies into England under the rules above. Every time the Germans would start sinking ships without warning, the US would protest, and to keep the US out of the war the Germans would modify their behavior for a while. Eventually they realized they were done if they couldn't stop the British from importing what the British needed, so turned to unrestricted submarine warfare and that brought America into the war. It is also to be noted that, 22 years later when WW2 broke out, US, German, Japanese and British subs never even pretended to do the stop and search routine but just fired away from the beginning.
